New direct Munich-Fez flight on Sundays: from the midday arrival to riad check-in
September 23, 2026
6 min read
From late October 2026, Discover Airlines links Munich and Fez every Sunday. You land around midday and fly back on the same day the following week: here is how to use those two half-days in the medina without carrying your suitcase.
Key Takeaways
Discover Airlines links Munich and Fez every Sunday, from late October 2026 to late March 2027: it is the only direct route between Bavaria and Fez.
About four hours in the air, with a morning departure from Munich and arrival around midday at Fez-Saïss.
The Fez medina is closed to cars and riads are often at the end of long, sloping alleys.
A drop-off point next to the Chouara tannery is open from 9am to 6pm, Sundays included, at 9 MAD per hour per bag.
From late October 2026, Discover Airlines, the leisure airline of the Lufthansa group, links Munich and Fez every Sunday, until late March 2027. It is the only direct route between Bavaria and the imperial city. About four hours in the air, a morning departure, arrival around midday, and a return to Germany in the evening.
With a single weekly frequency, things are simple: you arrive on a Sunday at midday and you leave on a Sunday. Both half-days are easy to handle, as long as you settle one question: where will your suitcase be?
Short answer
You land at Fez-Saïss around midday, on a Sunday. The medina is closed to cars and your riad will probably hand over the room in the afternoon. On your return day, check-out is in the morning and the flight leaves in the afternoon. Either way, a drop-off point next to the Chouara tannery, open from 9am to 6pm, Sundays included, keeps your bags for 9 MAD per hour.

Why your suitcase really matters in Fez
Fes el-Bali is a medina entirely closed to car traffic. Taxis drop you at the gates, such as Bab Boujloud or Bab Rcif, and the rest is on foot. The alleys are narrow, often sloping, cobbled and full of steps. Porters with carts wait at the gates and can walk you to your riad: a good solution for the suitcase, less so for a day of sightseeing.
City by city, we have looked at how practical each medina is with a suitcase in this article. For Fez, the answer is clear: better not to drag it around.
Arrival Sunday: what to do between midday and check-in
Around 12pm: landing at Fez-Saïss, south of the city, then a taxi to the medina.
If the riad can keep your bags, leave them there and head out. It is often possible, but ask in advance.
Otherwise, drop them next to the Chouara tannery, then enjoy the afternoon: the terraces overlooking the tannery, the surrounding souks, Seffarine square and the Qaraouiyine quarter.
Before 6pm: collect your bags and settle into the riad.
A useful reminder for a Sunday: some shops in the medina close or open later that day, but the main sights stay lively.
Return Sunday: a morning without your suitcase
The return flight lands in Germany in the evening, so it leaves Fez in the afternoon. If you hand back your room in the morning, drop your bags at 9am, take a last stroll through the souks, have lunch, then collect them before taking a taxi to the airport. Leave plenty of time for the journey and formalities.
Where to leave your luggage in Fez
In the medina: a partner shop on rue Chouara, two minutes from the Chouara tannery. Open from 9am to 6pm every day, Sundays included.
In the new town: a second point, open from 12pm to 10pm every day, handy if you are staying outside the medina or taking an evening train.
